[Unchainme]

Only 1/2 of the orignal line-up. I'd go for the hell of it though. Though they should call it the Layne Staley Tribute band, Layne is AIC.

[LoungeMachine]

Gilligan is right.

This should be billed as Jerry & Friends.


This aint AIC.

period.

[ALinChainz]

Not the same ... no way it could be ... have to wonder what Layne would be saying ...

Not seeing an American dates either ...

Not sure if I would go ... I wouldn't say definite either way ...

LM ... should have seen what's up ... went on tour ... why would they need Duff?

[Matt White]

"Surprise US club dates"


I'm keepin' my eyes open...maybe HARPOS....

Jerry wrote 75% of the lyrics and sang on a majority of the songs....


Like I said...I'M IN.....

And YEAH...NO MIKE STARR

[ALinChainz]

I know dude ... and nothing against Jerry at all ...

Kinda think Jerry should just take over the lead sing role ...

Bring along another guitarist ...

Cool with that too....

Or have whoever he wants to sing, sing....

No one loves the shit more than me ['cept maybe AL ] but......


Just don't call it Alice.


I felt the same way with VH

and Queen.


It's called respect

No clue.

First I've heard of Duff being remotely involved.

Matt'll know

[Golden AWe]

...but we must remember this line-up is not bashing or a disgrace to Layne in any way...there's no Hagars here...

I think we could see a some kind of a AC/DC-thing happening here...

[Roy Munson]

I believe Sean Kinney said that they were only going to do this tour under the Alice name as a tribute to Layne and that if they do ever record anything in the future they will use a new name. That sounds respectful enough to me.

As for Mike Starr not being involved? Mike Inez is Mike Starr x 100.

[Matt White]

MAybe Duff or Inez will add a second guitar?


That's my guess....

[indeedido]

I don't care about Layne. I'd have more respect if he hadn't thrown his life away. A little selfish on his part, so it the band goes on, power to them.

I can understand Queen keeping the name though. There are billing it as Queen featuring Paul Rogers. No one would buy it as just Queen, not without Freddy.

True Godfather. But I think that was because of pressure from the blogosphere to not use the name.

I believe their initial intent was to use the name.




Regardless, I'm glad AIC's music will carry on.
